The guy was acting strange for sure, but I wonder why they didn’t taze him before he could get back to his car.
One report I read said that they did taze him. The article went on to speculate that the officer who fired the lethal round might have fired because the taser was fired. Sort of like he fired...so I had better fire too.
It would be interesting to know how much experience the officer who fired the lethal round has. Because if that article is correct (And it well might NOT be), it sounds like a mistake made by a nervous rookie.
Apparently one officer chose his tazer and the other chose her gun and they fired simultaneously (according to their lawyer).
I am afraid that one of the officers thought the had their tazer on him and when they fired realized it was their duty firearm.
Its happened several times before.
